| (EZ-Tracks) - Rap-rocker Kid Rock has won a temporary ban on the distribution of an
explicit sex tape, which features the star and fellow singer Scott Stapp
romping with four women. Last week distribution company Red Light District
announced plans to release the racy video, which features Rock and former
Creed frontman Stapp talking while indulging in sexual acts with several
ladies on a tour bus in Miami, Florida, in 1999. On Tuesday the hitmaker
filed a lawsuit in Michigan's Detroit District Court against Red Light
District, accusing the firm of violation of trademark and privacy rights.
Although Ritchie's lawsuit seeks a permanent court order halting the sale or
distribution of the tape, Judge John Feikens signed a temporary order
yesterday, which bans Red Light District from posting a preview clip on
their websites. The rocker's lawyer William Horton tells local newspaper
Detroit Free Press, "We don't deny the authenticity of the tape. But they're
using this without his permission to drive the sales of their other
products." Red Light District president David Joseph claims he obtained the
video from a third-party, although Ritchie claims he understood the video
was Stapp's private property after filming it. |
